"New adhesive in Salonpas doesn’t stick well, so I found generic patches at the Dollar Tree - 20 patches in a pack for $1.00. They use the old type of adhesive that sticks until you remove it and works great! Really helped my arthritic knees and ankle."

"I’ve used these patches successfully for various conditions over the years. Contrary to some reviews, I’ve found that they stick very well on skin. They need to be applied flat. They might not adhere as well on skin that is oily, or that has folds. Make sure skin is dry and oil-free. They stick better, are less expensive, and offer more relief than the major competitor’s brand of larger patches, hands down."

"I was having knee pain, so I bought the cream and a patch. I rubbed the cream, and the following day, my knee and the back of my thigh were inflamed and swollen with blisters, and I felt like I had a fever. The swelling was so bad I could not bend my knee. It took one month to get rid of the side effects. Consult your doctor. This over-the-counter cream is dangerous."

"These saved Salonpas patches for me. They are strong enough to help my pain! I have arthritis all over. I don’t use them for my eyes, but I have arthritis in my eyes. You guys saved me. They stay stuck for 24 hours. Thank you, for my life is better because of Salonpas!!!"

"Stuck on Salonpas on my strained ankle, and within a few hours, had a patch of red rashes with blisters. One week later, the whole patch became scaly and thick with countless blisters that broke and crusted. This is some dangerous medicated plaster. I never had an allergy that bad!"

"I bought these patches for my knee, and they work great! I have a small knee, so they were able to stay on, but if your knee is larger than the average knee, it won’t stay on!"
